يسعى هذا التقرير إلى تقديم لمحة عامة عن الجهات الفاعلة الحالية في مجال قضايا الجندر وتدخلاتها في لبنان. كما يسعى إلى تسليط الضوء على العلاقة المعقدة بين المنظمات التي تعنى بشؤون المرأة في لبنان والجهات الممِّولة لها. ومن الأهمية بمكان في هذا الإطار الإجابة على الأسئلة التالية: إلى أي مدى تساهم توجهات التمويل في تحديد ملامح تصميم المشاريع على المستوى المحلي؟ وهل أن المشاريع القصيرة الأمد والمتحورة حول توفير الخدمات تساهم في تنقية التغيير الإجتماعي الذي يمكن لهذه المنظمات إحداثه؟ أتاحت لنا البيانات التي تم جمعها من خلال مسح قام به مركز دعم لبنان في ٢٠١٥ إمكانية بلورة لمحة عامة عن...

ينتمي مفهوم المجتمع المدني إلى تلك المجموعة من المفاهيم التي كلما زاد حضورها في حياة الناس زاد عليهم غموضها، ما يحوّلها إلى أيقونة يحتشد الناس انتصارا لها وينبرون للدفاع عنها، خاصة في بلدان الاستبداد حيث يُحاصر المجتمع المدني ويُضَيّق عليه الخناق حتى يكاد يختنق ويتلاشى. والواقع أن لمفهوم المجتمع المدني دلالات متغيرة بتغيّر الأوضاع التي تمر بها الدولة والمجتمع. كذا هو الحال في منتقطنا حيث تختلف دلالة المجتمع المدني إبان بداية أحداث العنف اختلافا جذريا عما كانت عليه قبلها وكذلك عما آلت إليه الأوضاع اليوم. لكن يبقى وجود مجتمع مدني حر وفاعل شرطا أساسيا لتحقيق الديمقراطية المنشودة، ولا يبدو هذا...

The humanitarian aid system is growing and expanding, and so surely its capacity to meet these challenges should also be growing. Yet despite the enormous resources, in the more complex, less high-profile and difficult contexts, MSF teams in the field have seen that humanitarian responses to displacement emergencies have not occurred in a timely and effective way. This is especially the case in conflict areas. These observations have prompted MSF to conduct this review, to better understand how the humanitarian system is responding to acute displacement emergencies. The review is based on...

DRC in Lebanon The Danish Refugee Council has been operating in Lebanon since September 2004.The focus of the organization has shifted over time as the country’s needs changed.

Integrity’s research highlights that women’s networks and organisations in Syria are active across a range of service delivery sectors. In many cases these groups are either responding to gaps in services provided by other NGOs, civil society organisations (CSO), or other service delivery actors, or they are providing understanding and access to the specific needs of women and children beneficiaries that other groups cannot. Women’s groups interviewed by Integrity are most active (62 per cent) in the education, skills training, and livelihoods sectors. These areas both help meet immediate...

Les politiques de coopération au développement des bailleurs étatiques placent de plus en plus le secteur marchand comme un acteur clé du développement, à la fois comme un partenaire financier ou opérationnel mais aussi comme un objectif en soi. Sa croissance dans les pays du Sud, que ce soit dans le domaine productif ou de la fourniture de services, y compris pour de la délégation de services publics ou l’offre de services bancaires, est considérée comme un indicateur positif. Les gouvernements des pays membres de l’UE cherchent ainsi à maximiser son rôle comme catalyseur ou «substitut» de...
